Despite the veto, Huawei develops its own components and continues with the 5G deployment

Toni Jin Yong, CEO of Huawei in Spain, said the group develops a long-term business continuity plan, which allows it to offer telcos complete networks (mobile, fixed and core) regardless of handset suppliers of American manufacturers, so they will not be affected by American veto measures. In addition, he reported that their existing smartphones and tablets will not be affected.

Additionally, he denied that US restrictions on its products and its supplies affect the deployment of 5G technology, in which the firm, he said, surpasses its competitors by "two or three years". It is worth mentioning that, Honor, the second Huawei brand globally, has announced three new phones of the Honor 20 range, one for each type of pocket according to its power.

Government analyzes partial privatization of Copaco

The state operator is going through a delicate moment. Its income does not cover operating expenses and it must fulfil a debt obligation of US$110 million.
